Cardona & Bredenbeck to meet in WRT Modesto Open final

Alejandro Cardona and Jake Bredenbeck - the #1 and #2 seeds at the World Racquetball Tour (WRT) Modesto Open in Modesto, California - will meet in the final on Sunday after they won their respective semi-finals on Saturday.

Cardona beat Andree Parrilla, 15-4, 15-9, in the semis, while Bredenbeck had to come back from a game down to defeat David Horn, 10-15, 15-14, 11-3.

Horn had three chances to win it in game two, but failed convert any of those match points. Bredenbeck took advantage of the opportunity, and in the tie-breaker he got up 6-0. Horn got a few points, but after that early lead he never got back into the game.

Horn also disputed some of the referee’s calls in game three, and was likely unsettled by the number of calls that he felt did not go his way.

Bredenbeck will try to ‘do the double’ on Sunday by winning both singles and doubles, as he and partner Jose Diaz defeated Cardona and Jordy Alonso in the semi-finals on Saturday, 15-10, 15-14. Bredenbeck and Diaz will face Horn and Parrilla in the final, as Horn and Parrilla beat Freddy Flores and Jaime Martell in the other semi.

The final will be live streamed from Modesto via the WRT website beginning at noon PT Sunday.
